Throughout 2023, Bristol Ideas is running Bristol 650, a project which marks the 650th anniversary of Bristol becoming an independent city and county. Bristol Ideas wishes to commission a locally based artist to create an illustration for the cover of the book.
Walking Words
Bristol Stanza Group and Lyra Festival present 'Walking Words'. Both a book and a digital walking trail, accessible through a mobile app where spoken versions of the poems are triggered on your mobile phone as a participant walks past the specific poem sites. The book, published by Bristol Books is based on the poems and is on sale throughout the Lyra annual Bristol Poetry Festival, which this year runs from April 22 to May 1.
